It _already_ appears in the docstring of `max-specpdl-size':

  You can safely use a value considerably larger than the default value,
  if that proves inconveniently small.  However, if you increase it too far,
  Emacs could run out of memory trying to make the stack bigger.

  You can customize this variable.
